The V-Tee is long on me too (much longer than my older model tank). I haven't found it problematic as I just roll up the bottom end.

Pricing the bra the same as all of the other garments does seem a bit outrageous.

Choma, where is your sound off?

I have a long term problem of being a size "medium-large" which makes it difficult to find shirts that fit well. I ordered the medium Intelliskin, but it is too tight. It does do what it says with regards to posture and I found it especially helpful when sitting at my work desk. This is where my posture tends to degrade the most. But it was too tight to wear for very long.

I have ordered a large and will try it later today. Hopefully it fits right and is not too big to cancel out the benefits.

I tried the large and was surprised that it was so tight in the arm pits. No better than the medium. It did have more material in the middle far upper back close to the neck, but that wasn't where I needed it.

Overall, the Intelliskin is a no go for me. I think if they did custom shirts where they measured out your shoulder, chest, upper traps, etc., and then cranked out a shirt for your body, it would work great. I believe it will also work great if you are fortunate enough to have a good fit with their existing shirts. Sadly, that is not the case with me.

jkl626 mentioned that they liked "The Spinal Q Brace". Um, wow, looks hard to order: http://www.spinalq.com/ (web site comes up blank under any browser at this time). :rolleyes:

Hi Chroma, Yes their website doesnt work. My dr at Orthohealing ordered it and it is covered by my insurance. I think its very expensive.Its more like a vest,not a shirt. I think it will be too hot for summer. But it definately helps. Didnt you see a dr at Orthohealing? you might want to call them to see if you can order it. I think they ordered it through a rep.Here is the phone # on the package:855-4-Q-Brace. I also have two alignmed postureshirts. The Black cotton one is the strogest support but nowhere near the spinal Q.

Intelliskin Bra
 

Hi,
Does anyone have the intelliskin Bra? My chiro recommended it or the Eve shirt. They make one with a zipper now, so that might be a good way to go-easier to get on and off. I already have 2 posture shirts, but dont do that much for me as I have small shoulders.
Thanks for any input

Unfortunately, they don't have a zippered Men's V-Tee yet which is the garment I have the most trouble getting into. I like the idea of the new Cool Jade Fabric.

I have been to the Intelliskin office in Irvine (it's only a few buildings down from my massage therapist). I just called first and they were open to it. They may let you come by and get fitted so you don't waste time shipping garments back and forth.

The best thing about the garments is that they are very lightweight. More lightweight than a men's cotton T-shirt. I can wear them as T-shirts although I think the Eve Shirt may not work as well with many women's fashions.

Intelliskin Zipper Collection
 

I stopped by the Intelliskin office today and tried the new Zippered Foundation Shirt for men. The Cool Jade Fabric seems to work as advertised. However, the zippered shirt was not really that much easier to get on than the V-Tee for me presently. This is likely only because, I can raise my arms above my head without issue now so I can see the zippered version being necessary for those who cannot.

I can imagine the zippered bra being easier to get on than the older version.

The sizing also seems to be a bit different. I wear an XL V-Tee and Tank, but could not squeeze into a XL Zippered. XXL Zippered seems to be barely larger than the older XLs. I did purchase the XXL Zippered.

The neckline on the Zippered is close to equivalent of the V-Tee, so it can be worn as a T-shirt under most men's clothes (and still appear professional). However, the sleeves on the XXL Zippered are longer than the XL V-Tee (not sure if this is because of the sizing inconsistency or the design itself). I can wear the V-Tee with short sleeved shirts but I have have to roll up the sleeves on the zippered a bit so they are not visible (a problem I believe many women have with the Eve shirt).

After wearing back to back the Zippered and the V-Tee I have to give a slight edge to the Zippered due to The Cool Jade Fabric which is just a bit more comfortable. Also, the zipper lining is well designed and I don't feel the zipper when wearing unlike the awfully irritating Alignmed S3 zipper.

If you are considering buying a new Intelliskin garment, I recommend choosing the zippered. If you already have an Intelliskin garment and don't need another, the difference is not great enough to warrant another purchase IMHO.

Intelliskin Bra
 

Went and bought the zipper bra today from Intelliskin. It is a little hard aroind the shoulders, The one with out the zipper was a little softer but I liked the zipper and th look of the black one under T-Shirts. i wore it for 2 hours while at the drawing board. My shoulder started getting sore after awhile anyway. I will try it without it for awhile as you arenot supposed to wear it too much at first.

First impressions: very similar to the alignmed posture shirts, but easier to wear under shirts. not alot of shoulder support,but good scalpular support. I tried on the Eve shirt and thought it had better support, but I am waiting for a long sleeved one to come out for winter before I spend more $$$$.

My spinal Q brace gives much much better support everywhere,just a bit bulky and hot and I cant wear it for very long either.
